I have been trading with Lark for around 2 years. I am based in the UK and primarily trade Nasdaq. Recently I had my first payout that was processed speedily and without any issues. In my opinion they are one of the best prop firms around. They offer excellent trading conditions. I trade 7 other props along with Lark and I can honestly say Lark outperform the majority with spread costs, least slippage and excellent execution. The CEO Matt also takes an interest in the community and offers sound advice and market news through his newsletter and X platform. I have no hesitation in recommending Lark to anyone who hasn't tried them out. You won't be disappointed, they are a well run and honest firm. Stick to the rules and you will get paid!

Hi Robert,

Congratulations on earning such an impressive payout with us! We understand the lock-upon-payout rule can be frustrating, but clearly it didn't limit you.

All the best,

Bad experience with lark funding. I was able to hit 10k profit with funded account at lark funding. But, they rejected my payout Here is their message "Following a detailed review by our risk team, your payout request on account 688459 has been declined due to violations of our All-or-Nothing trading rule and Prohibited Trading Practices. Our review found: 61.2% margin utilization, well above our recommended threshold of 20%. Trade ID 274543602 exceeded our maximum loss limit of 1.5%. Account swings of up to 4% within a few hours, indicating excessive position sizing and risk exposure. This trading behaviour aligns with what we define as YOLO-style trading, which falls outside the parameters of responsible risk management required for our program. As a courtesy, we have refunded order 28772. It’s also worth noting that your previous payout of $522.90 on account 673898 was processed as a goodwill exception, despite that account also breaching our rules with losses reaching 4.3%. We appreciate the time and effort you’ve put into trading with us, but given the repeated violations of our risk parameters, we will be closing your account and will not be able to continue this partnership moving forward." Please review this company and talk again with them. I am afraid it will also impact other users from PFM. Thank you

violations of our All-or-Nothing trading rule and Prohibited Trading Practices.

Summary

They said I violated their rules. But there js none of them were explained on their website "61.2% margin utilization, well above our recommended threshold of 20%. Trade ID 274543602 exceeded our maximum loss limit of 1.5%. Account swings of up to 4% within a few hours, indicating excessive position sizing and risk exposure. It’s also worth noting that your previous payout of $522.90 on account 673898 was processed as a goodwill exception, despite that account also breaching our rules with losses reaching 4.3%." They stated themselves that they approved my last payout 522.9 despite 4.3% loss. It showed inconsistency. When the payout was small, they approved it. When the payout was big, they rejected it.

Hello Moko,

There are no hidden rules at Lark. Unlike many firms, including some of the largest in the world, that quietly enforce a 1% max-risk rule on funded accounts, we publish our standards in plain view and enforce them consistently.

The policies your account triggered are all documented here:
https://helpdesk.larkfunding.com/en/articles/8243502-prohibited-trading-strategies

Our review found over 60% margin utilization, which is more than triple our recommended 20% threshold, along with multiple trades exceeding our 1.5% loss limit — including prior trades on your previous account where losses reached over 4%.

This type of trading—large position sizing, high exposure, and rapid equity swings—is not how one would typically manage a personal account and represents a clear breach of our All-or-Nothing trading policy.

Your earlier payout (~$522) was processed as a goodwill exception even though the same risk patterns were present. The larger payout was reviewed under the same published rules and could not be approved.

We understand this isn’t the outcome you wanted, but it isn’t about the payout size; it’s about risk profile vs. clearly posted guidelines.

We wish you the best of luck in your future endeavours.

Matt, CEO

Update September 2025 Unfortunately, I have lost my $200K account due to the “All-or-Nothing Rule.” I was using one of the older accounts that requires a buffer. The trade in question lost just 0.8% of the account, which is very low risk. However, due to unforeseen slippage, my margin utilisation rose to 92%. This, combined with the lower leverage applied to indices (I trade US30), flagged me as a risk to Lark Funding. As a result, my account was immediately closed, and I was not given the opportunity to start an appeal process. Following this, communication from Lark Funding deteriorated. Where responses previously took around two days, they began taking over ten days. Furthermore, I was not allowed to withdraw the remaining $2,640.41 in my account, which had been earned legitimately and not under the “All-or-Nothing” policy or any infringement. I am completely disappointed in the way this situation has been handled. They have not acted professionally throughout.. I have offered to prove that my trades are copied from my personal master account, and if my prop account history is reviewed, it will clearly show that I have been trading responsibly and with low risk throughout my time with Lark Funding. There have only been two occasions out of all my trades where I opened more than one position, and I have never lost more than 1% in a single trade. I was under the impression that for accounts opened prior to the new rule changes, traders would keep all profits made, even if a breach occurred. The “All-or-Nothing Rule” is not clearly defined, and it seems that Lark Funding is able to apply rules and penalties arbitrarily once they invoke this infringement. I requested my money to be paid, after which I would have walked away quietly. However, after much persistence, I was eventually informed that due to the rule breach, no payout would be made. This is both unacceptable and unprofessional. To date, my most recent email has not received a response. It is a shame that a company which claims to pride itself on good service has chosen to treat its traders with such disregard, disrespect, and poor service once I was pushed out. My review has now been downgraded to a one star review.

I still don’t like the 5% trade buffer required before receiving withdrawals. However, I do believe it’s a more sustainable model compared to traditional routes.

Hi Jonathan,

We appreciate you sharing your feedback, and we want to clarify the facts surrounding your account.

You received $7,110 across 5 successful payouts before our risk team made the decision to close your account on August 29th due to excessive risk metrics — specifically, 93% margin utilization across multiple accounts.

To be clear:

We do not ban traders for a single trade above 20% margin.

The issue arises when the majority of trades consistently run at extremely high margin levels — in your case over 90% — as this creates an All-or-Nothing risk profile that falls outside our risk tolerance.

To address a few specific points:

Slippage was not the cause. Even if slippage contributed to a single trade, it remains each trader’s responsibility to manage risk so their account never comes close to breaching firm-wide limits.

Multiple firms flagged this style. We noticed you left a nearly identical review for Traders With Edge, who also cited excessive risk. It is not a coincidence that more than one firm identified the same concerns with this trading approach.

Clear rules, consistent enforcement. Our margin utilization guidance is posted publicly on our website and applies to all traders equally. High-risk, high-drawdown trading puts both the trader and the firm at unnecessary risk, which is why we enforce this rule consistently.

While we value every trader we work with — and in your case processed over $7,000 in payouts — we must enforce our risk policies to protect the integrity and sustainability of our programs.

We wish you the best in your future trading endeavors.

— Matt, CEO
